À genoux devant toi
Je m¹incline dans la prière
Prends ce jour, il est à toi
Remplis-moi de ta paix

Ave Maria, Gratia Plena
Dominus Tecum. Benedicta Tu

Tous mes biens je te donne
Tous mes rêves et mes souhaits
Mère du Christ, ma mère à moi,
Donne-les à mon Seigneur

Ave Maria, Gratia Plena
Dominus Tecum. Benedicta Tu

A genoux devant toi
Je regarde ton beau sourire
Chaque pensée, chaque parole
se perd dans ton amour

Ave Maria, Gratia Plena
Dominus Tecum. Benedicta Tu

Translation:
Kneeling before you,
I bow in prayer
Take this day, it is yours
Fill me with your peace

Hail Mary, full of grace
The Lord is with you. Blessed are you

All I have I give you
All my dreams and my wishes
Mother of Christ, mother of mine
Give them to my Lord

Hail Mary, full of grace
The Lord is with you. Blessed are you

Kneeling before you,
I look at your beautiful smile
Each thought, each word
Is lost in your love.

Hail Mary, full of grace
The Lord is with you. Blessed are you
